Abstract

The elderly patient is not simply an "older adult." Geriatric patients have unique responses to treatment and disease: they often harbor co-morbidities that can impact evaluation, treatment, and prognosis. Often elderly patients may require specialized expertise or experience to deal with specific geriatric syndromes. It is not the goal of Geriatric Ophthalmology to make ophthalmologists into geriatricians. Rather, it is our hope that by applying a competency-based approach, we can improve awareness, increase understanding and encourage expertise about geriatric issues among eye care professionals. Among the topics of special interest to the ophthalmologist treating elderly patients, the editors have included diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma, and low vision. As demographic trends demonstrate, the patient population of will continue to expand into the foreseeable future, making the competent and compassionate care of elderly patients an imperative for clinicians, public health officials, patients and families. Geriatric Ophthalmology: A Competency-Based Approach aims to provide the framework for quality patient care.

Abstract

The proportion of the world's population of individuals over the age of 60 is expected to double to 20% by 2030. This change in the demographic, and its potential economic impact on industrialized nations has prompted active research in automated systems for functional and health status monitoring and assistance, enabled by recent technological advancement. Eldercare Technology: A Handbook for Practitioners addresses technologies targeted at the assessment, early detection and the mitigation of common geriatric conditions including decline in functional abilities, gait, mobility, sleep disturbance, vision impairment, hearing loss, falls, and cognitive decline. This book not only describes the state of both embedded and wearable technologies, including technologies under research and on the brink of translation into products, but also focuses on research showing the potential utility of these technologies in the field. Eldercare Technology: A Handbook for Practitioners comes at a time when interest in eldercare technology and the need for effective and appropriate technologies especially are peaking. This important book will be an indispensable aid to all professionals involved in the field of eldercare.

Abstract

Le généraliste et les spécialistes sont amenés à examiner un nombre croissant de malades âgés ou très âgés. Ils n'ont jusqu'à présent guère été préparés à cet abord clinique très spécial où chaque symptôme peut relever de plusieurs causes, où les maladies sont presque toujours multiples, symptomatiques, ou prêtes à se révéler par une complication, où un diagnostic peut en cacher un autre, où des antécédents - clé du diagnostic - ont pu être oubliés ou tus. Ce petit ouvrage permet au médecin de s'approprier l'abord du vieillard malade de façon utile et, nous espérons, agréable. Il y trouvera un accès concis aux diagnostics les plus quotidiens à cet âge, et comment en éviter les pièges. Ceci n'est ni un traité exhaustif pour spécialiste, ni un aide-mémoire pour étudiant pressé. L'objectif des auteurs, de générations différentes, est de transmettre à tous leur expérience de gériatres. Chacun peut y renouveler son intérêt pour l'examen clinique, première source de tous les diagnostics, quel que soit l'âge.
